Answers:
What is the ratio? 120:2
What is the unit rate? 60:1
What is the rate? 60 jumping jacks per minute
===================================================
Further Explanation:
To find the ratio of jumping jacks to minutes, you just write the two values 120 and 2 separated by a colon. That's how we get 120:2 as our first answer.
--------
Once we have 120:2, we divide both parts by 2 to get 60:1
120/2 = 60
2/2 = 1
The reason why we do this is so that the "2 minutes" turns into "1 minute". A unit ratio has the time value in unit increments so we can see how many jumping jacks Samuel can do. Writing "60:1" means "60 jumping jacks in 1 minute"
-------
Saying "60 jumping jacks in 1 minute" is the same as saying "60 jumping jacks per minute", which is similar to a car's speed of something like 60 miles per hour. The unit "X per Y" is the template for speed, where X is the number of items you get done and Y is the unit of time. In this case, X = 60 jumping jacks and Y = 1 minute.

Answer:
- 0.83
- 0.9
- steeper than
- slower than
Step-by-step explanation:
Letting t=1 in Ted's equation, we find that he climbs 5/6 stairs in 1 second. As a decimal, 5/6 ≈ 0.83.
Michael climbs 9 stairs in 10 seconds so his rate is ...
... (9 stairs)/(10 seconds) = (9/10) stairs/second = 0.9 stairs/second
Michael's graph will be a line with a slope of 0.9; Ted's graph will be a line with a slope of about 0.83, so the line on Michael's graph is steeper.
Ted climbs fewer stairs per second, so his rate is slower than Michael's.

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
You're being asked to compare two different rates that are associated with two different people. First the comparison is one way, then it is the other way. This can be confusing. It might be helpful to draw and label a simple chart to help you keep it straight. (The attachment is such a chart scribbled on a bit of scratch paper. It is sufficient for the purpose.)
Answer:
3/4 times 18= 13.5
31.5-13.5=18
It cost 18 dollars for the skirt with a discount.
It cost 13.5 for the blouse as opposed to the original price of 18 dollars.
18(skirt)+13.5(blouse)=31.5
If you set up a proportion to find the original price of the skirt you will get the answer.
18/x=75/100
75x=18 times 100
75x=1800
75x/75=1800/75
x=24
The original price of the skirt is 24 dollars.
